Chapter 10

Question 1

Calculate Electron Groups

Answer 1

1. Lone Pairs
2. Bonds (Single,Double,Triple = 1)
   Lone Pairs are not always shown!

Question 2

Hybridization

Determine Hybridization

Answer 2

Hybridization: Mixing orbitals by unpairing electrons to create new
degenerate orbitals with individual electrons.

Hybrid Orbitals = Electron Groups (Lone Pairs & Bonds)

Question 3

Bond Length & Strength

Answer 3

Single: Longest and & Weakest
Double: Medium & Moderate
Triple: Shortest & Strongest

Question 4

σ Bond

π Bond

Answer 4

σ: All Single Bonds, Stronger than π

π: In a double or triple bond, one bond is a σ, the rest are π
